Just watched Argo last night. It was a very good movie with heightened suspense almost the whole way through.

I thought it was great as well, I have to admit Ben Affleck isn't the greatest actor but the man can direct. He's 2 for 2 with me as a director with Argo and The Towne.

That was a fantastic movie. Very realistic portrayal of how tough it is to develop a standup act.

Saw a few interesting movies. For anyone who enjoys really uncomfortable movies, "Young Adult" is good -- Charlize Theron plays a character who you just want to repeatedly toss in front of a moving train, and she plays it really well.
I know the reviews were pretty iffy for "Seeking a Friend for the end of the world", but I liked it. As like as you treat it like two separate movies that were kind of rushed in delivery. I just like movies that use good musical sequences and this had some real good ones. |

Loved the movie and think it is an absolute sham that it wasn't nominated for any major Oscars. There's a lot to be said for a script written so well that it requires pretty much no budget or gimmicks to pull it off.

I've heard a few people talk about how it pretty abruptly moves from a sarcastic comedy to more of a romantic comedy. I didn't really feel that way, but when you read that criticism, I can see why some people found it a bit jarring. Think some people might enjoy the movie more if they knew going in that it's a pretty funny movie, but it's not meant to be a pure comedy, despite how it starts off.

Watched "End of Watch" and "Flight" this weekend. Both good movies.....although I think I liked "End of Watch" better.

EoW was pretty good. I saw Flight on Friday, and honestly I think it would have been a better movie if he'd have remain an asshole to the end.

Watched a pretty decent horror film over the weekend called Intruders.
